Country Tourer 4x4 Vauxhall Insignia.

[DaveA1]

HI Just bought my first 4x4. Bit different to the Sport Tourer bigger ground clearance, drive train etc. Any advise on tyres servicing. Not the one in the pic but same trim. Mines Glacier White, You need sun glasses to look at it when the sun shines. 2 0L Diesel 163 hp 350nm toque. 1900 towing limit.

Lovely car Dave, it will look great with your van on the back.
I would go for a set of All season tyres, as the tread pattern are good for grass.
Although I went for Hankooks K117s. Not all season,

Rotate tyres front-rear about every 5,000 miles to keep their diameter the same.

Looks nice, I didn't know Vauxhall did a 4x4 version. A bit like the old 4x4 Cavalier, I only ever saw one of those on the road.

Fortunately the 4wd system on the Insignia is a lot more robust that that on the Cavalier!

I suspect it will have a Haldex system for the 4x4 and I would strongly advise getting somebody competent to do a Haldex oli service on it.

Vauxhall will no doubt say however it doesn't need one, but then they stand to gain when it breaks.

These are nearly as rare as rocking horse ---- been looking for one for years.

Looks great. I guess it will more than tow your Challenger.
